Hi,

Can you narrow it down further? Have you tried just commenting out the
vif bridge?

Ian

Hello!

I am using xen some years now and it just runs without any problems. But
now one customer needs a stupid WinXP domU and I am trying to get this
running for about two weeks...

I am using  2.6.26-2-xen-amd64 kernel, set up a dummy network

auto dummy0
allow-hotplog dummy0
iface dummy0 inet static
  address 10.0.0.1
  netmask 255.255.255.0
  broadcast 10.0.0.255

xend-config:
(network-script 'network-bridge netdev=dummy0')
(vif-script vif-bridge)

every Linux domU runs fine.

Without this configuration lines:

#vnc=1
#vnclisten="0.0.0.0"
#vncpasswd='asd55gugu'
# vif = [ 'type=ioemu, ip=10.0.0.2, mac=00:16:3e:01:01:01,
bridge=dummy0' ]

windows runs to. If I enable VNC or the network, I get the state ------
and 0 CPU usage. It just does NOTHING AT ALL. No warning. No error.

The really funny part is that the networking and VNC actually worked
during installation. After that I shut down windoof, created two debian
domUs (with xen-tools) and started - tried to start - windows again. No
way.

PLEASE!!!! Anybody any ideas??? I am really desperate! I can't afford
much money at the moment, but I am willing to pay as much as I can now
and more later...

Thank you very much in advance!

Best regards,

Anton
